> it does not address the real issues of DNS management: space to store all zone data, bandwidth to support requests flow, resources to handle the load.

You're absolutely right! However, as you said, it solves the user's problem from their point of view.

The main reason I started this project was that other dyndns alternatives (whether they be proxies or "fully-fledged" operations) have rather ugly domain names, in my opinion. 'zzzz' popped into my head, I saw that 'zzzz.io' was free, and decided to get it. A few weeks later, I finally got around to throwing a webapp together so others could benefit.

Not such a horrible thing to do, or?

And yes, the service is backed up by Amazon's Route 53. I did learn a thing or two about BIND and DNS from the experience though, which is also a plus.
